Paper Egg

2egg_9467 Ok, not entirely paper.  It's actually a plastic egg, but covered with sheet music.  Kind of gives a paper mache effect, right?  After covering the egg (using mat gel medium for the adhesive) I went around the opening with an exacto blade so it can still be opened.

2chick_9499 The idea came from Amy at Inspire Co.  Her eggs turned out beautifully…so delicate & girly with all the glitter!  I love how they look, but I'm always reluctant to use glitter because it just never goes away once you turn it loose.  Maybe I'll try just a little glitter on my next one.  I think it would be cute to make Valentines eggs too.  Ya know, with conversation hearts inside?
